Summary of the contracting process

Golding Homes, based in Maidstone, appointed a provider for electronic payment services. The requirement covers financial services that enable electronic payments for Golding Homes and is delivered in Maidstone, England. Northern Housing Consortium Limited is the buying organisation and arranged the appointment through its housing procurement framework. The service is classified as financial and insurance services and sits within the wider services category. This is a specialist payment-services requirement rather than a general banking, software or housing-management contract. Businesses should be able to provide and operate electronic payment services for a housing organisation, with delivery centred on Golding Homes’ operations in Maidstone.

The procurement has been awarded and is complete. allpay Ltd was selected on 2 June 2026, following a selective call-off from the Northern Housing Consortium’s Electronic Payment Services Framework. The awarded value is £250,325 in GBP. The contract runs from 1 July 2026 to 30 June 2028, with an option to extend for a further year. The tender submission deadline was 2 June 2026. The award was made under the framework call-off route, rather than through a standalone open competition. The awarded supplier is allpay Ltd, and the procurement’s stated evaluation basis is the framework call-off process.

For a future requirement of this kind, credible suppliers would need an established electronic payment service capable of supporting a housing provider’s payment operations reliably. Relevant strengths would include secure payment processing, dependable service availability, suitable customer and transaction support, and the operational capacity to manage the needs of a housing organisation. Experience delivering comparable financial or payment services would help demonstrate that capability. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises, so organisations of those types may be relevant competitors where they can meet the service and delivery requirements. Access to the relevant housing procurement framework would also be important for competing through the same route.
